Answer:
{-3/2, 4}
Step-by-step explanation:
Use synthetic division here. If the remainder is 0, then the divisor is a root or solution.
Here we have x = -4. Perform the synthetic division as follows:
-4 4 -10 -24
-16 108
------------------------------
4 -26 84 The remainder is 84, which tells us -4 is NOT
a root/solution.
Try -3/2 as divisor this time:
-3/2 4 -10 -24
-6 24
------------------------------
4 -16 0 Remainder is 0, so -3/2 is a solution
Show in the same manner that 4 is a solution also. Or determine whether x - 4 satisfies 4x - 16 = 0 (it does).
Not quite sure what you mean by brackets, but you can get the solution to this equation in a few steps:
<span>(-2x - 1)</span>² <span>= 0 ... square root both sides to eliminate the squared binomial
</span>√(-2x - 1)² = √0 ... simplify; the square is canceled out and the root of 0 brings you back to 0
-2x - 1 = 0 ... solve like a two-step equation
-2x = 1
x = -1/2 is your x-value.
Probability of 2 consecutive greens equals 4/9*3/8=1/6
Probability of not getting equals 1-1/6=5/6
